What was once a "lifetime naming rights deal" is has now been killed off and replaced by Crypto.com in a 20 year, 700 million dollar deal. It is now clear that the Los Angeles Kings were aware of the potential deal as early as August as they painted their ice. We had tweeted about how the ice was missing the Staples Center text when it was first painted. They would go on to paint the text on a higher layer of the ice than the rest of the markings. Now it is clear, they did this so they could easily changed out the text for the new arena name when the new deal takes effect on December 25, 2021. We will work on a center ice concept for the new name later this evening.

We see lots of ice designs being painted, but we do not see a lot of ices being melted. Here is a thread of any melting ice photos we find from the world of hockey. Norfolk Admirals

Honestly, I would like to see playoff ice logos, I'm not sure if I'm doing this request thing correctly (feel free to remove) but I would like to see

One possibility the NHL has mentioned for the soon-to-be homeless NHL club is that they might play at Chase Field. Here is a look at what that might look like on ice. It is weird putting the word "Field" on an ice surface.

Great to see people signing up as members of thefaceoff.net! When new features roll out, I plan to give all of you early access! Speaking of that, we have small feature coming out soon, and I will let you all know when it is ready!

With today's announcement by the NHL that ads will appear on jerseys, it is almost certain that in the not-so-distant future, the ice rinks will be covered by ads just like many minor leagues are today. I would fully expect to see something like this. Maybe even worse.

This scoreboard is taking FOREVER to build.

We have had our first look at NHL 23, though there has not been much to see yet. Here is what we have noticed so far from the screenshots and video of the game. The new scoreboard for Washington is in the game. They did not update the seat color to black, or add any of the extra LED screens that were also installed the same season as the scoreboard though. EA has stated that they have authentic on-ice projections for NHL teams this season. Does that mean all teams? Probably not. I don't know that all teams use projections. We can see that Colorado has their intro projection in the game though. Hopefully more screenshots and video will be released in the next few days.

I wonder if the ECHL and NBA Scoreboards will return like on The Faceoff Courtside since its not there anymore.
